Yes! Had surgery 10/3. Nurse told me i was eating too much and too fast as well as drinking too fast asso i cut my meals in half and slowed down eating actually taking the 20 minutes and went back to using the one oz cup to sip my liquids. Its much better now.

That's exactly how I felt. Frustrating when u feel like your doing well and then pain comes in. My pain is moving so I'm assuming that's a good thing. But I am scared too mizzlaw I'm sure these pains are normal. I'm calling my dr tomorrow just to be sure maybe you should do the same.

I started Protein shakes today and I'm having a hard time drinking them. It feels like they're going to come back up! I don't have any energy at all today but I know that I have to make myself walk!

Hi everyone. I had my surgery on the 18th. Came home on the 19th. Everything went great. Just a little muscle pain. Just took a walk outside. Now sipping away on some muscle milk. Hows everyone else doing?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
